"Bachelor" Bob Lido was a 30 year plus veteran of the Welk organization. Appeared on the TV shows through the early 80's doing mostly novelty tunes while supplying his superb violin playing in the famous Welk string section.
He must have liked working for Welk..but what working musician wouldn't. Some travel - not a lot - and steady, good work. A new Dodge every year is not bad either.
